Don, Are you saying the training session will be offered for free to a few applicants? After the training session will these applicants trade the firm's money without putting up any type of upfront capital?

You didn't know what a pussy looked like at 22 y/o ??? Well, I guess you are a cave man in a very very dark cave..

gotta love that last one :) Classic.

I trade fully automatic but never would trust a retail broker. Wave of the future or not, you will never be able to get rid of your fear and greed. Systematic doesn't mean:let it trade and forget about it. It means that you are abiding to your plan 100%, but what tells you that you will...

1008-988/988 = 0.0202 Is that what you want ? That's the % difference between those two numbers. If you want the midpoint: 1008+988 / 2 = 998 If you want the 3rd quartile: 988 + (1008-988 * 0.75) = 1003 I have no idea if that's what you want, but here si what i think is what you...

Started at 19, I'm 22.

Kymar, I can't try to think what you have been trying to say. All I know is that the debate should have ended a long time ago but it's still raging on. What does that say about immediate credibility.

Scientist, the "black swan" is an image that represents the unforeseen event. Can we infer that all swans are white because all the swans on the lake are white? Just one black swan would refute that theory. Same with the russian bond default. It isn't because Russians have never defaulted on...

Nope, the difference between me and the casino is very simple, one makes money because the rules are SET statistically, while the other one EXPLOITS the rules statistically. One can make money either way. Your Z test doesn't sit pretty on a gaussian distribution (while you may be fooled it...

Statistics lie brother. In the end it's all a game of chance. Don't be fooled to think you rule this game just because you're getting a robust z test answer. Not that it doesn't help build confidence, but when the black swan hits, there's nothing you can do to stop it.

Gotta side with DT on that one. Brokers (much like everyone I know) are interested in short term gains.

Being a high school drop out doesn't mean he couldn't/didn't get a higher education. These are not mutually exclusive events.

A GPA is to students what a 7 figure income and credibility is to a business man. No more no less. It's a benchmark. You don't necessarily need a high GPA, but it's a good way to show what you're made of. College helps you gain confidence and focus. Some people like that, some people don't need...

Usually quants know how to program, just like most physicians know how to program. Being good in Math is not enough to warrant hiring someone for developping trading strategies. Furthermore, to develop strategies you have to be able to code and test and backtest and run fourier analysis and...

Hey Tgregg, whenever I'm done relocating and have my workstation available, I wanna take you 1 on 1 at Warcraft III :) Can you handle that ? Take it easy bud, Swoop

I do not believe that trading the MA is a good strategy, I have done extensive tests on various trading systems and while you may decrease drawdowns, you will definitely lose tremendous returns on the long run.

as long as you recognize the mistake, 90% of the work is done. Now all you need to do is to fix it.

Well actually, I like that line of business. I'll volunteer to be the risk manager on call for any ET member. Special Discount rate hehe :)

doubling up losers is the sin of all sin. What have you learned all these years.
